A record total of $1,100,000 in individual contributions was reached today by 200 women who took part in a luncheon inaugurating the 1967 campaign of the women’s division of the United Jewish Appeal of Greater New York.
The outstanding individual gift at the luncheon was made by Miss Caroline Greenfield, of New York, who donated $350,000 toward the cost of building the new Leo Baeck High School to be erected in Haifa by the Israel Education Fund of the UJA. Construction of the school will begin in the spring. The women who attended the inaugural luncheon were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur B. Belfer.
